Honorable mention cacher of renown: Trippy1976...2/26/02 for their contribution to our geocaching community, the relative term of active is defined by SuchaNana as:
those she knows and/or those who still have active caches she knows of … operative word here is KNOWS …
so - Please feel free to contact me with the names of those unintentionally not on this list…

"Keystone" is actually a bogus fake name for volunteer reviewing and modulation purposes only.

"The Leprechauns" is a real fake name for geocaching purposes only, and that start date would be 2 June 2002.

knowing that already, had to keep in mind that only Keystone is the member of NWOGEO... how about if we let him
decide how he wants to be honored?

I am amused by the GC code for this one. The forepeak is the inside space in the pointy end of the ship, and is often where we threaten to tie up unsuspecting sailors, or people we think should be sailors. It is a dark and somewhat malodorous part of a ship, where many events of ill-repute are rumored to have occurred. It is also where we keep the five gallon bucket of Crisco.

So... what goes on at a Holiday Shindig in the NWO?

It is like a Meet and Eat, with more people, homemade food and an awards ceremony.

The event doesn't officially start until 12:00, but I will open the doors at 10:30am for the setup committee and the elves.
We will bring all the fixins for the coffee and a nice salad.

As I posted on the official site... I'll bring the sound system and a crockpot of BBQ meatballs.

We volunteer to staff the travel bug table again

Thanks to ALL, 'twas a FUNtastic Holiday Shindig...

the NWOGEO Decade Club new inductees who could not make it to the event may pick up their award at a meet and greet and eat in 2014...

Geauga Garmin could not attend, but Kathy did send this:
"So sorry that I won't be there tomorrow.
NWO played a big part in my early days of caching. Met many people out in NWO land over the years and always enjoy caching whenever I can get over your way.
See you all again at the next Spring Fling!"

CapFantasy and LuvWahoo also could not attend, but Robin sent this:
" I'm so sorry I didn't write to you before now but I was still hoping we would still be able to make it to the Holiday Shindig this year. I started a new kind of old job back at the steel plant in Lorain and work some crazy schedules. My work schedule is always changing so its really hard to make plans or commitments. My schedule changed again Friday and I have to work today at 6PM till 6 AM so the timing just wouldn't work out today. I was afraid that would happen so I kept the day open changes are always happening at work.

Marci and I are both very honored the we were put in with the group of legends you have out there like the ones you have listed, they are truly a good bunch of people. I'm proud to say I know those people!
Again, I am sorry we could not make it to the holiday celebration today but I've been thinking about it for weeks and am disappointed we aren't there to share the fun with everybody.
Merry Christmas and have a great holiday season."

TB HELP NEEDED!
NWOGEO was contacted by a user Ramun asking us to place his TB Teddy the Racer - 10 of 11 somewhere. This TB (along with a TON of other travel bugs) are still in inventory of the NWOGEO 2013 Holiday Shindig (GC4PEAK). I have no idea who took it from the Shindig, but could you please move at least that specific one along? Thanks a bunch for the help!

With the winter we just had, did anyone move any bugs in the past few months? I know I didn't take it, so I hope whoever did gets it moving too.
